Schema.org Vocabulary › Class: StatisticalPopulation
https://schema.org/StatisticalPopulation
A StatisticalPopulation is a set of instances of a certain given type that satisfy some set of constraints. The property [[populationType]] is used to specify the type. Any property that can be used on instances of that type can appear on the statistical population. For example, a [[StatisticalPopulation]] representing all [[Person]]s with a [[homeLocation]] of East Podunk California would be described by applying the appropriate [[homeLocation]] and [[populationType]] properties to a [[StatisticalPopulation]] item that stands for that set of people. The properties [[numConstraints]] and [[constraintProperty]] are used to specify which of the populations properties are used to specify the population. Note that the sense of "population" used here is the general sense of a statistical population, and does not imply that the population consists of people. For example, a [[populationType]] of [[Event]] or [[NewsArticle]] could be used. See also [[Observation]], where a [[populationType]] such as [[Person]] or [[Event]] can be indicated directly. In most cases it may be better to use [[StatisticalVariable]] instead of [[StatisticalPopulation]].
Subclass of: Intangible
| Property | Description | Range |
|---|---|---|
| populationType | Indicates the populationType common to all members of a [[StatisticalPopulation]] or all cases within the scope of a [[StatisticalVariable]]. | Class |
| Property | Description | Range |
|---|---|---|
| potentialAction | Indicates a potential Action, which describes an idealized action in which this thing would play an 'object' role. | Action |
| image | An image of the item. This can be a [[URL]] or a fully described [[ImageObject]]. | URL, ImageObject |
| sameAs | URL of a reference Web page that unambiguously indicates the item's identity. E.g. the URL of the item's Wikipedia page, Wikidata entry, or official website. | URL |
| owner | A person or organization who owns this Thing. | Organization, Person |
| description | A description of the item. | TextObject, Text |
| subjectOf | A CreativeWork or Event about this Thing. | Event, CreativeWork |
| url | URL of the item. | URL |
| additionalType | An additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. Typically the value is a URI-identified RDF class, and in this case corresponds to the use of rdf:type in RDF. Text values can be used sparingly, for cases where useful information can be added without their being an appropriate schema to reference. In the case of text values, the class label should follow the schema.org style guide. | Text, URL |
| disambiguatingDescription | A sub property of description. A short description of the item used to disambiguate from other, similar items. Information from other properties (in particular, name) may be necessary for the description to be useful for disambiguation. | Text |
| alternateName | An alias for the item. | Text |
| name | The name of the item. | Text |
| identifier | The identifier property represents any kind of identifier for any kind of [[Thing]], such as ISBNs, GTIN codes, UUIDs etc. Schema.org provides dedicated properties for representing many of these, either as textual strings or as URL (URI) links. See [background notes](/docs/datamodel.html#identifierBg) for more details. | Text, URL, PropertyValue |
| mainEntityOfPage | Indicates a page (or other CreativeWork) for which this thing is the main entity being described. See [background notes](/docs/datamodel.html#mainEntityBackground) for details. | CreativeWork, URL |
